Invitro shrooms being covered in white myc!?

Hey guys, no pics cause I'm on iPhone.
So my Ecuador strain has 2 full shrooms that grew invitro very fast. The jar is about 90% colonized, but the invitros are being covered in white mycelium fuzz now. I am worried if they get overtaken they will spoil.

Sounds like either cobweb mold that's not grey yet or the mushies reverting back to mycelium. No way to tell without pics.

It's mushies. And mycelium. No doubt.
The question doesn't need photographic evidence:
If the mycelium overtakes the mushies will they spoil and contam. Yes or no?

If the mycelium overtakes the mushies they will just be part of the sub again Unfortunately in vitro pinning before 100% colonization is usually evidence of a contam being present.

Why you waiting? Birth that thing. You don't want mushrooms rotting in the jar.

Yeah exactly my thoughts. But cause the cakes only 90% colonized and you can see faint substrate coloration within the cake, I am scared
I birthed it, plucked the shrooms (one is 3 inches from a 1/2 pint jar). It wasn't cobweb, I'm positive.
I have the cake dunking, should I pull it early since it's not consolidated? Or just ride till I die?

Pics would be nice So no odd odors, like sweet, fermented or earthy? Subs won't pin unless they are clean & 100% colonized If it pinned before 100% it could be contaminated. Remember too that sometimes myc can be whispy and not look 100% when it acually is ready. With that said IMO I'd proceed as if it were consolidated, unless it had any signs at all of contamination. In which case I'd trash it and start over.

No contams at all, and the son of a bitch Ecuador MS colonized a freaking 60% burnt substrate. It was a beast man. The one mushie was a freaking inch+ long and a total .8g. Just not a ton of actives in it if any.
